Loved Before

A soft toy adoption agency, saving the planet one teddy at a time…

Each year in the UK alone, 8 million soft toys end up in landfill (and growing!). Along with them, the stories and memories shared with them are thrown away and left to rot. The difficult materials of these toys make them frankly impossible to recycle, and their composition means they take hundreds of years to break down and compose. Along with this, high carbon emissions come from the production of these toys which require immense fossil fuels, not to mention the carbon footprint of this high-demand global supply chain. As a culture, and quite literally from the moment we are born, we begin to grow our own collection of toys, with most children acquiring far more than they could ever love or play with within the first few years of their life. Charity shops are ill-equipped and overwhelmed, toy brand trends are fuelling over-consumption and the industry is calling for change.

This is why, when I discovered what was going on, I created Loved Before. We are a soft toy adoption agency looking to challenge perceptions of second hand, rebuild the consumer model and change the industry forever. When people are ready to part with their toys, they send them into us (we receive quite literally hundreds every single day). The toys visit our spa for a thorough clean, refresh and repair and are then beautifully packaged along with their bio (often written by their previous owners) before finding their next adventures across the world.

Fluffy Linkedin Lead

Volunteer Role Description (remote, unpaid)

Do you believe in second chances? So do we – especially when it comes to soft toys! Loved Before is on a mission to rescue, restore, and rehome pre-loved stuffed animals, proving that second-hand doesn’t mean second best. We’ve built an incredible, engaged community across our platforms, and now we need someone special to help us bring that same magic to LinkedIn.

About the Role We’re looking for a volunteer LinkedIn Manager to help us grow our presence on LinkedIn – connecting with like-minded brands, sustainability advocates, and supporters who believe in what we do. You'll play a key role in spreading our mission, building relationships, and helping us reach new audiences.

What You'll Be Doing: �� Creating engaging LinkedIn posts that showcase our impact, partnerships, and behind-the-scenes stories. �� Growing our network by connecting with potential collaborators, eco-conscious brands, and corporate supporters. �� Spotting LinkedIn trends and leveraging them to boost engagement. �� Tracking growth & insights to refine our approach. �� Engaging with our community—responding to comments, messages, and opportunities for collaboration.

What We’re Looking For: ✔ Someone who understands LinkedIn and can help us stand out. ✔ A creative storyteller who can turn our impact into compelling content. ✔ A self-starter who loves connecting with people and building relationships. ✔ Passion for sustainability, second-hand love, or social impact (bonus points if you have a soft spot for soft toys!).

What You’ll Get: ��A chance to be part of something truly special – an award-winning social enterprise changing how people see second-hand. �� Flexible remote volunteering – work from wherever, whenever suits you. �� The opportunity to make a real impact in growing a brand with purpose.

If you're ready to help us turn LinkedIn into a hub of second-hand storytelling, we'd love to hear from you! Apply now and let’s save the world, one teddy at a time.

Who Are We?

We're setting up a new youth project in London called Urban Youth. Our aim is to create a positive community for young people, offering a number of activities and programmes that forge connections by getting young people together and away from their phones and social media. We want them to actively take part in fun and engaging interactive activities that create memories, boost confidence and resilience, and teach key skills for life – skills that young people can take with them into adulthood, helping to build their future.

Why We Are Doing This?

In a city grappling with the cost of living crisis, rising crime rates, and pervasive worry, it's easy to feel helpless. London is a city of dreams, but for many young people, it can also present unique challenges. Access to positive spaces, mentorship, and opportunities to develop crucial life skills can be limited. We saw a need for a fresh, vibrant approach to youth work – a place where young voices are heard, and potential is unleashed.

Can You Help Us Achieve This?

We need a dedicated and experienced volunteer to join us as our Project Manager. This pivotal role will lead the entire setup and operational running of Urban Youth, transforming our vision into a tangible, thriving youth project. You'll be instrumental in bringing our programmes to life, ensuring everything runs smoothly from concept to delivery.

We know you're busy. We know you have choices. So, why dedicate your precious time to Urban Youth in this crucial role? Because this isn't just volunteering; it's an unparalleled opportunity to:

• Lead from the Front: You'll be the driving force behind Urban Youth, responsible for planning, executing, and overseeing all aspects of our project's launch and ongoing activities.

• Build Something from the Ground Up: Take ownership of shaping our operational framework, implementing systems, and ensuring our activities are delivered effectively and safely for young people.

• Apply Your Project Management Prowess: Utilise your expertise in project planning, resource allocation, risk management, and stakeholder coordination within a dynamic, impactful setting.

• Be a Strategic Operator: Work closely with our management committee and volunteer coordinator to ensure our programmes align with our mission and deliver maximum benefit to young Londoners.

• Experience Unrivalled Satisfaction: Feel the profound satisfaction of knowing your leadership directly creates a positive impact on the lives of young people, fostering their growth and potential.

• Join a Dynamic Community: Become part of a passionate, supportive, and fun-loving team of like-minded individuals. Forge new friendships and find your own sense of belonging.

We Need You!

If you have a proven track record in project management, a keen eye for detail, the ability to manage multiple priorities, and a passion for youth empowerment, then we would love to have you join us in this exciting adventure. We're seeking someone with enthusiasm, a willingness to get hands-on, and a desire to help a new charity get set up and thrive, ultimately shaping and changing young people's lives.

Ready to Ignite Young People's Future by Leading Our Project?

This is your chance to be part of something extraordinary. To turn worry into hope, isolation into connection, and potential into reality, by directly leading the charge in bringing Urban Youth to life.

Don't just watch Young People's future unfold. Help build it!
